Dstv Decoders In Nigeria (Price)

The following DStv decoders are available in Nigeria and can be purchased from online and offline stores around you.

DStv Explora :

This is the most advanced piece of hardware from Multichoice LTD (Owners of DSTV). DStv Explora is an HD PVR decoder which allows you watch and record quality HD content from different channels. In addition to that , it also comes with internet access that you can use to stream live and download content from the internet.

More interesting is the fact that DStv Explora gives you the ability to record your favourite shows so that you can watch them later. The decoder can record up to 220 hours of content which you can save and watch when you’re free.

DStv HD Decoder :

The DStv HD Decoder’s user interface is similar to the DStv Explora. Most functions can be performed from DStv Central, accessed through the blue DStv button on the remote control. This user interface makes for easier navigation through the HD menus and helps customers discover great DStv content available via multiple search options directly from the remote control.

The decoder is XtraView capable and can be paired with selected XtraView compatible decoders (excluding the SD PVR), allowing a cost effective and flexible option to allow more than one independent viewing environment.

We should be patient with Dstv Nigeria. Cost of doing business in Nigeria is very high.Reduction in prices in Ghana, may be due to availability of basic infrastructures.Most importantly, electricity and security.Personally, I will want them to promote our cultures and tourist attractions. Thanks for job well done.

Please help me here. Recently, a friend of mine bought a DSTV Decoder here in Nigeria and took it along to Sierra Leone. He has been using it for the past one month. Now his subscription has elapsed and he wants me to help him renew it for him from Nigeria. How should i go about it? Will be looking forward to your prompt response.

Good evening sir, I have been paying for DSTV Compact Plus (9,900) but I can’t watch Supersport 11 (HD/SD) and Supersport 12 (HD/SD) which is among the DSTV Compact Plus package. Please help me include the two stations. My Card No – 10433431870. My name is Akinlabi Olusogo Abiodun. Thanks.

Honestly,the only problem we have in this country is our government and wealthy peoples .You can imagine how DSTV and Nigeria government are treating and oppressing Nigerians.Dstv increased only Nigeria subscription and reduce all other African country subscription proverb 14 v31 says He who oppresses the poor reproaches his maker but he who honors him has mercy on the needy.If you don’t want God to baptized u with destruction.Try to change for better.

No champions league on an average range subscription! That’s very bad of DSTV. I pray the Nigerian government do something about you soon cos you are milking Nigerians. Recently, you did a subscription reduction cut in Ghana and we didn’t get that in Nigeria considering almost every house hold has a decoder here and Nigeria gives you more than Ghana.

Dstv subscription is Nigeria is too expensive,that is ridiculous…how can one pay 6300 and one can not watch uefa champions leauge….after advertising fake talks to persuade us to buy..in south africa ss3 showed manu vs basel..but in Nigeria is not showing . This country is currupt even in d hands of dstv Nigeria..i regret eva buying ur fucking dstv in Nigeria

Dstv u have made so much money here in naija, why cant u cut down on your subscription charges. You are being unresonabley wicked, and when one manage to pay as much as 3,800 Yet he can’t watch premier league. Pls do something let’s sing of your going deeds.

I am looking into getting the DStv Explorer and opt for the Compact package for start, can this work in Sierra Leone? About the internet service, does it come with its own facility or one has to get internet service before you can use that aspect?

When the 2017 Wimbledon started I could watch it on 223, all of a sudden the channels are renamed and Wimbledon is no longer available.! On the same compact plus. Why would the rules be changed midway? That is so not fair, it is also very rude.

I got the dstv explora decmber 22 and I was deactivated today jenuary22. Please I red online that if you get a new dstv decoder,you’ll get free 3months subscription and I was not given free the 3months subscription. Please I want to know what’s wrong.

Pls Mr kelvin ndukka….. I have a dstv walka 7… it has two supersport channels on it(( ss3 and ssd5)).from ur above list u stated that compact plus gives u access to ss3 HD in nigeria,,,,, will it work on my walka 7 if I link it to an existing compact plus account??? And also I’m seeing diff ss3 around,,,, some are ss3 AFRICA while some are ss3HD, , pls is there a diff btw the two?

I like DSTV. However, of recent, they removed the ONLY German channel: ZDF. I am German speaking and 60 % of my TV-watching-time I spent watching ZDF. The rest is sports and news. Question to DSTV: is ZDF coming back or not?

pls why did u guys remove CBS drama frm the 3600 bouquet dt is unreasonable and I also want to propose that can’t dstv b magnanimous by leaving d few local station on dstv if ur dstv subscription has expired

Hello, how are you? Is it possible to swap my Dstv compact plus decoder with a HD PVR decoder or with any decoder that does the extra things regular decoders don’t do? If yh, how much would the cost be?

Wish I could buy, subscribe and use in Ghana. The monthly subscription in Ghana is crazy. We pay more than twice u pay in Nigeria, so if it is possible, why not. Premium costs over a $100.00 . It’s crazy

Pls I always pay 4000 online since August for dual view i get food network channel n many other channels but this month I went to ur office n the told me extra view is 5800 and I didn’t get all same channels I got from the last payment so pls sort it out asap and moving forward if I want to pay for the 6000 naira package will I still get it as extra view?and if not how much will it be online and as dual view. I will appreciate a detailed reply pls. You can email me a reply.

Pls I don’t understand what’s goin on, I did d 1800# subscription August 30 and I had trace tv but as of this month september I cannot find the channel again. That my smartcard isn’t subscribed for it. Has trace tv been excluded from the 1800# plan nw ??

Hi. Honestly you have to work more on the image quality on the HD receiver, because it’s not clearer than the normal SD receiver when it comes to the RF OUT extention. Please try and increase the quality, it’s displaying in blah form.

You really make it seem really easy with your presentation but I in finding this topic to be actually something which I feel I would never understand. It seems too complex and very vast for me. I’m taking a look forward in your subsequent post, I’ll try to get the dangle of it!
